My Dear Grandchild,
It goes without saying that I will love you with all my heart, unconditionally; but what words of wisdom can I share, what advice can I give, that will make your life happier and more gratifying?
I thought long and hard, and decided to create a blog. A journal of sorts, where I could write down things I felt were important for you to know as you travel along this journey we call life. Some of my "words of wisdom" you will not understand until you are older. I may also repeat myself, but just phrase things differently, because some things bear repeating. Some of the advice I give is just common sense, but important nonetheless.
I pray that everything I tell you will help make your life a little easier.
Love, your Oma
